And for me the old theme was better.
If ask me I don't see a gray colour here, everything is white, ''too white'' or too bright.
Everything should be much darker.Couldn't agree more. Yeah, I see it as really bright too.

@SpecialOne Thank you for this update. I couldn't believe my eyes. Finally a bright cheerful background.
Sam is right about the too bright or too white , but I just use my laptops keyboard to lower my screen's light.
I'm more than happy with these changes! :thumbsup_tone2:I use forums while watching some videos in my other half of screen, so lowering brightness would not help. But I guess everyone has their own opinion.

@SpecialOne Why did you choose these forum providers in the knowledge that they would only allow you to select skins if you used THEIR theme? If you didn't know, couldn't you have just wired them an email asking about it before these forums were set up?

Way too white
-
In my opinion, grey background is "better" for majority of users than blue background. Actual background color is #eee and yes, maybe if background colour was #ddd or #ccc we can see the white area better yes but... Never 100% of OSM users will be agree in something, think about it and be more optimistic about changes!

Link to OSM profile is also added to every user profile.
Thank you!! This a big help
But this white theme is tooooo bright. My eyes are bleeding after few minutes of watching at screen.
Previous theme was much better then this. It's too bad that there is no possibilty to add a couple skins -
In my opinion It's better like that
-
@Michal_ACM Yeah agreed, I will probably need glasses soon with this being the background. haha Too bright indeed.

Personally, I think that with these themes, dark is good. Having a dark theme looks good, but is also more eco-friendly. Less battery power will be used by your device to create the dark bits, so less energy is needed.
-
@Octi Bro, I don't think lowering brightness just for forums will be good. I use my PC for other works, so I put my screen on exact brightness and it's harder to keep changing it. Also like I said before, I use forums while watching videos on other half of the screen, so changing brightness wont work.
-
So what was the problem with a blue forum? Too dark?
-
@DutchCaptain Really hard to read were the biggest complaints!

It's not grey at all.. It's too bright. If this can adjusted it's a great update
And no, I don't adjust my monitor brightness for the visit of one site.

@SpecialOne Thanks for the fix haha.
But if the problem was to hard to read, why don't make layes Dark on bright [or vice versa]? You basiscally have the same problem now with the white on white theme. In my opinion a darker [grey or something] background in the posts will make it a bit easier for the eyes to read. But that's my opinion..
-
@SUPERNOVA-8 My problem with this is that the mods just imposed this on us. They didn't let us vote to decide.
-
@Simenon The forum colour was only changed because it has been on of the biggest complaints about the new forums. Some users struggled to read the forums when they were the theme was blue, now everyone can read the forums and surely that is better?
I do not think the colour of the forum makes much difference, I personally preferred the blue colour too, but if I had a choice of a blue forum that some users couldn't read or a grey forum that everyone could read I would pick the latter.
-
@ruby2003 I don't know if it is possible, but maybe it's an idea to have a option to choose between dark/light theme? Like there is in Microsoft office?
If not, eventually everything we will get used to everything.
